1 00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:03,200 Speaker 1: This is jam nation with Jones. 2 00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:06,600 Speaker 2: Down to the Jonesy, no matter ms to the pub test. 3 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:10,000 Speaker 2: Signing off an email with a kiss? Does this past 4 00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:10,719 Speaker 2: the pub test? 5 00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:13,440 Speaker 1: I saw a tweet yesterday someone saying why to pr 6 00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:16,000 Speaker 1: people who I've never met or talked to sign off 7 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:18,640 Speaker 1: emails with a kiss? Someone underneath that said do I 8 00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:20,239 Speaker 1: do that with all my emails? Should I not be 9 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:23,280 Speaker 1: doing it? It's always been an embarrassment in the workplace. 10 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:25,400 Speaker 1: It's like calling the teacher mum if you put a 11 00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:26,640 Speaker 1: kiss at there because you used to do it with 12 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,440 Speaker 1: your friends and suddenly going you But maybe this is 13 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 1: the modern way of doing it. The etiquette experts say, 14 00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:33,960 Speaker 1: if you kiss a person in real life, then put 15 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:35,479 Speaker 1: a digital kiss on the end of the tweet or 16 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 1: the email or the text or whatever. Others say, you know, 17 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,199 Speaker 1: do be careful. It is a workplace. But in this 18 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 1: modern workplace, emails aren't formal letters. And maybe it's okay. 19 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:47,520 Speaker 2: Girls can do it, guys can't. 20 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,239 Speaker 1: So what you think that's it? All right? Signing off 21 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 1: an email with a kisses it past the pub test? 22 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:54,800 Speaker 3: Well, it dependents if it's a work email. Definitely not. 23 00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:58,280 Speaker 3: It's not something you would do in the workplace professionally, 24 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:01,200 Speaker 3: but efforts to a family member, I'm. 25 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 4: All for it. No, because it's not professional. I think 26 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 4: you should be. 27 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 5: You're sincerely or you're spoke to leave it. No, it 28 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 5: does not. 29 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 4: It's not professional unless is your husband or wife. 30 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 5: No, it depends. My boss does it, and but she's female, 31 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 5: so it just seems to be a natural thing that 32 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 5: females do. But I'm sure I'm thinking a bit strange 33 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 5: if it was a male, Absolutely not. 34 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 4: It's unprofessional and the only thing you should be signing 35 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 4: off with is the kind regard to beat. 36 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 5: Definitely not. 37 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,480 Speaker 3: If I got a kiss from my body. 38 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 1: In an email, I think I'd be going to HR 39 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:37,840 Speaker 1: and I'd be feeling a little bit dirty. Everyone's saying, no, 40 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 1: I saw my Christmas cards, kind regards your mother. 41 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 2: You sign off Christmas cards to your son saying thanks 42 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 2: for listening.
